Donald Trump will send foreign leaders more letters notifying them of new tariffs in the days to come, said Karoline Leavitt.“There will be additional letters in the coming days,” the White House press secretary said, in addition to the 12 he plans to send today and the two already made public, which were to South Korea and Japan’s leaders,
As for why Trump decided to start with the two Asian allies, Leavitt said:
It’s the president’s prerogative and those are the countries he chose.

July 7 (Reuters) - A proposal seen by Reuters and bearing the name of a controversial U.S.-backed aid group described a plan to build large-scale camps called “Humanitarian Transit Areas” inside - and possibly outside - Gaza to house the Palestinian population, outlining a vision of "replacing Hamas' control over the population in Gaza."The $2 billion plan, created sometime after February 11 and carrying the name of the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, or GHF, was submitted to the Trump administration, according to two sources, one of whom said it was recently discussed in the White House.

People who lost everything describe leaving homes and express anger at poor preparedness and officials who seemed to shirk responsibility
As Texas marshals a formidable response to the flash floods that have already killed dozens, questions are now being posed about warnings that were given on Thursday and early Friday about the severity of the approaching storm and the co-ordination between local officials and the National Weather Service.
New flood alerts were issued for Texas “hill country” on Sunday, prompting rescue services to suspend the search for missing people, including at least 11 from Camp Mystic, the summer camp on the banks of the Guadalupe River hard hit by Friday’s flash flood.
At an early evening press briefing, Kerr county authorities said they were suspending the search and evacuating first responders from the river valley. They confirmed that 68 had died there, including 28 children. Not all have been identified, with officials still examining the bodies of 18 adults and 10 children.

Hi all, I have tried everything, and now I am coming here for help. Hopefully someone can tell me what's happening here.
So, I have this older pc that I have converted into a steam console, first with Bazzite and now with Chimera OS. Both work very nicely, but the one issue that persisted on both distros is that when I put the pc to sleep from game mode (press xbox button>power>sleep) then wake it up, the screen is not receiving a signal, it not even a black screen, just no signal. I would have to force reboot it to be able to get in. Nothing works. I can't even get into a tty screen or do anything. It is connected to a samsung tv 65mu8000 via HDMI cable. I have UHD color input enabled for that input, just to give more details.
I have tried disabling the wake up animation like some folks suggested and that didn't do anything. I have tried disabling the display core like some other searches suggested by putting amdgpu.dc=0 in modprob.d in its own file. I have tried blocking the intel iGPU, even though this CPU doesn't have one. Nothing works.
It has an intel core i7 5930k and an AMD RX 6600.
I would appreciate any help or suggestions
Thank you

I've had the similar problems with bazzite in desktop mode coming back from sleep or screen off, first with Nvidia, then solved by switching to an AMD graphics card, but now it happens there too. I have two workarounds.
1) Try Ctrl+Alt+F1and Ctrl+Alt+F3. You should be able to switch to console then back to desktop/login screen.
2) In KDE Plasma, there's a way to map wake screen to a keyboard button. That worked for me until I reinstalled the OS and never bothered.
I think this is a Plasma or SSDM issue but idk how to report it properly.
Any ideas would be appreciated
You think it's the screen/hdmi at fault, but it might not be. I've had the problem with two laptops in the past (the bug was with all distros I tried), and in one case it was a BIOS that Linux didn't like, and the second one was the internal wifi that its linux driver was buggy. For the first laptop there was nothing to be done, so I disabled sleep completely in the bios, while for the second one, I disabled the wifi modules in the kernel's blacklist, and then used a usb wifi that I knew it worked better. Both cases were appearing as a dead screen, but it wasn't the screen/hdmi/gfx card to blame. In yet another case, with a thinkpad laptop, the wake up was working, but it would wake up 30 seconds later than anticipated. In that case, it was the fact that its thunderbolt was dead (hardware had gone bad), and only when I disabled it in the bios completely the laptop would wake up correctly and fast.
In all those cases, I had to look at the kernel logs to see what was the issue. There were traces of the problem of which hardware exactly was creating the problem. It might look like a screen/hdmi problem, but most of the times, it's not.

Challenges usually get the opposite reaction than demands for me, I can't even count all the stuff I've done because of it. Maybe self (not-)imposed challenges would work? I'll need to give it a try. Though challenges also have their problems, like picking the most stupid or pointless ideas because I was advised not to do it. I think there's a correlation between how stupid and pointless an idea is and how quickly my brain latches onto in 😅

Genuine Question. Even if I look at hungarian Transport, and they to this day use trains from the UdSSR, they come more consistantly then the DB.
They are really Bad sometimes, with like 20 seperate prices: Theres the bayernwald ticket that only works in the alps, then theres the official ticket to the destination. Theres a special offer, but only in the very special APP. You can use a d-ticket, but look! Some random ass slum in the middle of the worlds ass dosent accept that, but it does the MVV zone Tickets. But then you need the MVV zone 11-M, a ticket to the beginning to the Nürnberg zones, and a ticket for the Nürnberg zones.
And yet this shit is better than americas rails? How?
When I was in Australia, a bunch of people asked me about the public transport here and all of them were baffled when I told them how shit it was...
I have no idea why this perception that everything must be perfect in Germany or Europe came from but it is sooo outdated.
Speaking of tickets; in NSW you just tap your Opal card when entering/leaving train stations. It makes so much more sense and is so much easier.
Don't even need an Opal card- just tap your phone or your bank card.
The network is also massive. You can tap on in Kiama and tap off in Scone. That's about 400km, roughly equivalent to Berlin to Frankfurt, on regular metro trains. Might take a while, but you can do it.
I’ve been making plantain chips for a bit, and I’m always dissatisfied with them. If my plantains are too ripe, the chips can’t crunch up. Not ripe enough and they lack the slight sweetness I love.
I decided to grab the greenest ones at the market to slowly ripen them at home, but even that’s a bit wonky, as they tend to ripen on top but not the bottom, which leaves me with something peculiar and delicious, but certainly not what I’m looking for.
So, how do you consistently get plantains in the Goldilocks zone?
That's not a thing.

Introduction
This vulnerability report has been generated using data aggregated on
Vulnerability-Lookup,
with contributions from the platform’s community.It highlights the most frequently mentioned vulnerability for June 2025, based on sightings collected from various sources, including MISP, Exploit-DB, Bluesky, Mastodon, GitHub Gists, The Shadowserver Foundation, Nuclei, and more. For further details, please visit this page.
The final section focuses on exploitations observed through The Shadowserver Foundation's honeypot network.
The Month at a Glance
The June 2025 report highlights a mix of long-standing and newly identified high-risk vulnerabilities. Notably, Citrix discloses a critical NetScaler ADC/Gateway flaw (CVE-2025-5777), dubbed “CitrixBleed 2,” which can expose session tokens and bypass multi-factor authentication — echoing last year’s infamous CitrixBleed. Other urgent issues include a PayU India WordPress plugin vulnerability (CVE-2025-31022) that allows full account takeover across thousands of sites, and a Python “tarfile” library bug (CVE-2025-4517) that enables attackers to write files outside intended directories. Among the most sighted vulnerabilities are multiple Microsoft Windows 10 and Google Chrome flaws, as well as several Citrix ADC bugs, many rated “High” or “Critical.” Common web weaknesses like cross-site scripting and SQL injection (CWE-79, CWE-89) remain widespread, highlighting the ongoing need for strong patching hygiene. Some older vulnerabilities — such as the 2015 D-Link DIR-645 flaw and known Confluence or Cisco RCE bugs — also continue to see active exploitation. Organizations should prioritize remediation of these critical and actively targeted vulnerabilities, while reinforcing application security against injection and XSS attacks.

CitrixBleed 2
Citrix patched a critical vulnerability in its NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway products that is already being compared to the infamous CitrixBleed flaw exploited by ransomware gangs and other cyber scum, although there haven't been any reports of active exploitation. Yet.Security analyst Kevin Beaumont dubbed the vulnerability "CitrixBleed 2." As The Register's readers likely remember, that earlier flaw (CVE-2023-4966) allowed attackers to access a device's memory, find session tokens, and then use those to impersonate an authenticated user while bypassing multi-factor authentication — which is also possible with this new bug.
GCVE-1-2025-0002: Cl0p Ransomware Data Exfiltration Vulnerable to RCE Attacks
A newly identified security vulnerability in the Cl0p ransomware group’s data exfiltration utility has exposed a critical remote code execution (RCE) flaw that security researchers and rival threat actors could potentially exploit.The vulnerability, designated as GCVE-1-2025-0002, was published on July 1, 2025, and carries a high severity rating of 8.9 on the CVSS:4.0 scale.

"This can be abused by a malicious actor to perform action which normally should only be able to be executed by higher privileged users. These actions might allow the malicious actor to gain admin access to the website."CVE-2025-4517: Additional information
RISK : Multiple vulnerabilities affect the standard TarFile library for CPython. Currently, there is no indication that the vulnerability is actively exploited, but because it is a zero-day with a substantial install base, attackers can exploit it at any moment. An attacker could exploit flaws to bypass safety checks when extracting compressed files, allowing them to write files outside intended directories, create malicious links, or tamper with system files even when protections are supposedly enabled. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorised access, data corruption, or malware installation, especially if your systems or third-party tools handle untrusted file uploads or archives RECOMMENDED ACTION: Patch Source: ccb.be
Continuous Exploitation
- CVE-2025-32433 - erlang / otp
- CVE-2015-2051 - D-Link / DIR-645
- CVE-2022-26134 - Atlassian / Confluence Data Center
- CVE-2019-1653 - Cisco / Cisco Small Business RV Series Router Firmware

Asking this since I've always been told the former and that your bladder rupturing from not going to the toilet is a myth and the story of Tycho Brahe is too old to be reliable. But in recent years, I've seen articles about people drinking alcohol and passing out and their bladders bursting because the sensations got dulled (which still shouldn't affect the sphincters giving way due to the pressure before the bladder actually ruptures, since it's about the sphincters being not physically strong enough to hold back the pressure).
The existence of overflow incontinence would seem to contradict this story from 2020, for example. Alcohol dulls the urge to urinate, but overflow incontinence often happens in absence of this urge as well, and when the detrusor muscles (which squeeze the bladder) aren't working.
What's the straight dope here?

With that said, your question would probably hold more water (pun intended), if you had asked regarding a urinary tract infection or similar infection forcefully blocking the urethra, making it almost impossible to piss even if you wanted or needed to.
I won't go into the fine details, but early 2009 was definitely not fun for me after a multi-systemic infection that started as a dental abscess.
No, luckily nothing down south ruptured, but its never good when someone is pissing brown, I couldn't hardly even piss for a few days after I started antibiotics.

My R75 works fine under via.
I'm using the R75 vial firmware located here.
It won't compile, as cloned. It's more than just the directory structure which is completely silly. It's not surprising it didn't work, given it's messy state. I had to modify it a bit, so it could easily be something I did.
I had to add a UID:
config.h -> #define VIAL_KEYBOARD_UID { }
and uncomment tap_dance_action in keymap.c.
tap_dance_action_t tap_dance_actions[] = {
[TD_RESET] = ACTION_TAP_DANCE_FN(safe_reset),
[TD_CLEAR] = ACTION_TAP_DANCE_FN(safe_clear),
[TD_CTL_TG] = ACTION_TAP_DANCE_LAYER_TOGGLE(KC_RCTL, _CTL_LYR)
};
That's about it.
It compiles and downloads cleanly. Via continues to work but Vial does not discover it.
This mosbed firmware extension claims to be a derivative of this work but it doesn't seem to be.
github.com/irfanjmdn/r65/tree/…
Anyone have Vial working? It's a popular keyboard so I expect someone has solved this problem. If no one responds, I'll take it on in a week or so so we can all enjoy ou R75 on linux with Vial.

The problem seems to be lack of ability to give the board a magic serial number. The vial app looks for a specific string in the serial number ("vial:") to identify a vial capable keyboard. My R75 won't accept a serial number, no matter what I do.
Apparently, this is a limitation of some cheap USB controllers (always answer 0 to all serial requests). I don't know if that's true but ChatGPT tells me it's so.
udevadm info -a -n /dev/hidraw$(ls /dev/hidraw* | tail -1 | tr -dc '0-9') | grep -i serial 2 ✘
ATTRS{serial}=="00000000000000000000000000000000"
ATTRS{serial}=="0000:09:00.0"
Apparently, the magic number can be coded into the UID, also. I'm working on that, too, with no success so far. Apparently, USB controllers don't stand in for UID in any case.
I'm struggling with this. If anyone has some ideas or clear direction, I would consider it a favor. If I can manage to make it work, I'll publish the firmware for everyone.
Even if someone got the mossbed firmware to work, that would be helpful to know. I have been banging on it for three days with no luck. This is the most expensive, cheap keyboard I've ever purchased. lol!

Routine maintenance leads to unexpected microbial discovery in “ship goo” on the R/V Blue Heron's rudder shaft.Scientists discover new life aboard Great Lakes research vessel | UMD News Center
This question came about over a discussion my brother and I had about whether dogs should be on leashes when outside. We both agreed that yes, they should, for several reasons, but that's not the point.
Let's use a hypothetical to better illustrate the question. Imagine that there's a perfume - vanilla, for example - that doesn't bother you at all (you don't like nor dislike it), but that is very upsetting to some people, and can even cause some adverse reactions (allergies or something). In this hypothetical, based on the negative effects, you agree that vanilla perfumes should be banned. Currently, however, they are allowed.
You're walking down the street, and randomly smell someone passing you by and they're wearing a vanilla perfume.
Would that upset you? Why, or why not?
My answer is yes, without a doubt. Even though the smell itself doesn't bother me, the fact someone would wear that perfume and not only potentially upset others, but put them in danger, is upsetting.
My brother, however, would say no! He couldn't explain his reasoning to me.
I know this is a little convoluted, but I hope I got my question across.
There was a certain type of perfume that seemed popular back in the 90s, that would make me instantly gag and almost puke within seconds. I have no clue how anyone found that as any sort of pleasant smell.
To me I thought it smelled like a woman with a nasty yeast infection, trying to cover it up with potpourri. But it wasn't even the women's health causing it, literal potpourri smell alone causes me the same gag reflex, the stuff just smells nasty to me and I can't be in the same room as that smell for long.
So yes, there are reasons to be offended by particular scents, even if others somehow find them pleasant.

Turning on screen after turning off (even without sleep) takes a long time.
No suspicious logs in Kernel and Journald (even after comparing post-fix).
Switching kernel makes no difference.
Logging out and back in temporarily fixes screen rotation and screen waking until next suspend.

As per title, I am curious. How does your mind / your thoughts work? I only ever experienced my own thoughts, so I'm curious how it works for other people.
I for one feel like my thoughts sometimes are like me talking to myself silently. Sometimes I can even let out a random short sound, which I've come to start disguising by laughing kinda quietly or coughing or whatever. Like it was part of something, and not like an inner monologue almost leaking out.
So, how do your thoughts work?

Ok so how does a cancer kill its host?
It grows until it consumes so many nutrients that the other living cells don't get enough. The host literally starves even if he eats plentifully.
The same applies for the US: The billionaires are not only hoarding wealth, but by doing so they're crippling the economy for workers and everybody besides themselves.

Like some kind of fantasy Game Thrones-esque Chernobyl or something?
Edit: besides LOTR since its basically the Russian "side" version, wiseguys 😛

The latest 7-Zip release speeds up bzip2 by up to 40%, improves ZIP and FAT archive support, and fixes multiple bugs and security vulnerabilities.Bobby Borisov (Linuxiac)

Hey OP, you were released today with performance gains!
Ha, gotchem. The drive by compliment strikes again.

Beyond raw horsepower, 7-Zip quietly tightens its handling of several legacy formats. Support for ZIP, CcPIO, and FAT archives has been refined, smoothing edge-case extractions that previously required third-party tools.
Over the years there was a few .zip archives that 7z could not handle for whatever reason. For these cases I had to use another application, but don't know the reason. And my bad to not keeping copies of these files for future testing.

I'm very concerned that people who choose to go to France will just find themselves in the exact same situation along with the rest of us not too long from now. I'd advise looking for a country with a lower fascism approval rating...
We do have lots of cheese, though, if it's any consolation.
Posting here too as I've not had any responses in the more relevant communities.
Hi there, I've got these really odd issue where certain windows will cause random lines like the one in the screenshot appear on my screen. They will often flicker a bit and will dissapear if I hover my mouse over them. The lines will display what is beneath the window itself. These occour quite frequently and are frankly getting quite annoying to deal with.
Is this a known issue with KDE right now? It does not happen while using Gnome on the same machine + screen. If it matters I am running CachyOS+KDE 6.4.1+AMD.
If there is anythign I can do to fix this then I'd greatly appriciate some pointers!

I bought a Lenovo laptop, one from the the bargain bin, 11th gen Intel and 8gb soldered RAM
Even if I reinstalled Windows to make sure all the bloatware was removed, it was almost unusable. At boot I was left with only 800mb free memory, and "Lenovo vantage" kept reappearing automatically like malware. (It's a useless electron app that wastes half a gig of ram to show you on screen when you press caps lock, check driver updates and try to upsell you on extended warranty)
At idle the machine was as loud as a jet, with crystal disk mark always complaining "the nvme drive is over 65°C!!" (I'm guessing from the constant swapping)
Battery life was a disaster, 2 hours at idle with no foreground apps open
I thought that it was the CPU too slow for my use and the RAM not enough, so I was planning to spend some hundreds of euro to buy a new laptop with at least 16gb of RAM.
Then I installed cachyos and because I'm masochist I chose hyprland at the "easy" install screen that asks you which of the 19 available DE you prefer.
After a week of suffering trying to understand all the text configuration files for everything (it was a shock, everything needs the terminal) I'm now getting used to it and... It's like I got a brand new laptop??!?
Memory: clean boot now obviously is reversed situation. I don't have only 800mb of free RAM, the whole system uses only 800mb
Temperatures: by default cachyos is set to show the CPU temperature on waybar, and it's always around 40-45° C. The fan is way quieter. At idle they can even stop, before they were like a hair dryer even after a clean boot
Battery life: astounding. I can't believe that I can use it for a whole afternoon. Accidentally fell asleep and when I came back after two hours it lost only 10% (on idle, screen turn off automatically)
Gaming performance: tried only with casual games but with something like tinytopia I get 60fps on ultra when on windows it was choppy on high

It's now Us v Them. People need to start realizing that.
Using it to describe the vernacular is different than employing the tactic.
Mussolini, Hitler, and Stalin are all dead.
Seems it's a safe thing to describe it.

For fucking real. What exactly are you trying to justify here in this comment?
Welp, while you're sitting around thinking about it, I guess everyone else has to scrap shit to live.
Good for you in being neutral.

Continued fascist bullshit.
Are you Tucker Carlson by chance? Would LOVE to pick your brain about how you switch sides so fluidly when it's more monetarily beneficial to you!
